The patented Microcaps technology, available from Aptalis Pharma Tech, employs versatile, precise coating techniques to uniformly encapsulate drug particles using solvent- and aqueous-based coascervation for the purposes of taste masking, creating customized release profiles, converting liquids to solids, or separating incompatible materials.
Microcaps enhances overall patient compliance by improving the products’ acceptability. This includes taste and odor masking, customized release profiles, conversion of liquids to solids and the separation of incompatible materials.
The Microcaps technology has the flexibility to be combined with our proprietary AdvaTab® Orally Disintegrating Tablet technology to create tablets with high dose capacity, and a pleasant taste and mouth feel. Together, these technologies may enhance compliance by providing patients with a convenient, easy-to-swallow product with a pleasant taste.
